SHIT, THE SPELL THUNDER HAS BEEN TURNED INTO ENGLISH, AND THE PHRASE "GOT YOU".

I'm teasing (I love making fun of "early English" trailers though since they're usually bare bones -- this wasn't too bad), I'm just damn happy this is finaallly happening and it's the super edition.

EDIT: Apparently there were voices? I can't tell, my net at school sucks and I'm in class to check...EDIT REDUX: Got around to it. Decent voice work! Sounds like Bryce Papenbrook is doing the MC.

On a slight criticism though, I'm kinda bummed out with some of the washed-out colour schemes or the kinda....dark and ominous looking world map for what is otherwise a nicely rendered 3DS title.

Also, I kinda wish they went for a CG style (for the in-game CG renders) that reflected Akihiko's style more than the kind of awkward-real anime CG. Agnes looks pretty enough, Tiz less so. I love how they added a textured overlay of the FFTactics PSP edition to make it somewhat familiar looking with the original art. A nuance, but I like when games kind go that extra mile.

Anyways, this IS considered a FF-spiritual successor kinda thing, right?

Technically Bravely Default is the successor of Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light which was very much inspired by the FFs from the SNES/Super Famicom era, though, you could also say that The 4 Heroes of Light used the same concept of Final Fantasy IX of making an JRPG with an old-school feeling to it.

Also The 4 Heroes of Light is considered to be a spin-off in the FF series along with Final Fantasy Adventure/Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden for the GameBoy.

"I think I'm losing it. I'm pulling out my hair trying to figure out what couch defines me as a person. This is freaking madness. This is hopeless. This... my perfect little habitat here, and I still don't even know who I am." - from Dow Jones and the Temple of Doom by Burnt By The Sun

When there was no localization announcement in the first wave of the release, I was worried we'd never get. Now silly Japan is re-releasing a game with some additional features, and *now* we get the real deal in NA/EU. That's how it ought to be!!

A new mechanic for the version of the game we're getting. This sounds like something that's either going to be massively gamebreaking or like FFVIII's Eden summon in that it takes too long and doesn't nearly justifies the length of time it takes with the damage it does.

...wat.

It's like the weird Amazon preorder bonus for Sonic Lost World.

A code to get 20 free extra lives, except BD is making you pay for it...

Oh wait, this is still Squenix we're talking about. They're rearing their ugly heads into this.
